• 'The Chosen One': the Princess of the Occult is a sell-out success, but McLevy thinks she's a fraud.
• 'The Reckoning': as Jean prepares for a wedding, death stalks McLevy.
• 'A Bolt from the Blue': a corpse is found floating in Leith docks.
• 'End of the Line': two ladies discover the body of a drunken Italian aristocrat at Waverley station.
• 'Jack O'Diamonds': Jean Brash plans revenge on a sadistic client, but he is not a man to cross lightly.
• 'Queen of Spades': Jean's battle with Caleb Grant has heartbreaking consequences.

Written by David Ashton, these atmospheric radio dramas costar Siobhan Redmond as Jean Brash and Michael Perceval-Maxwell as Constable Mulholland.
